The History Of MAME Arcade Gaming
|
In 1996, Nicoloa Salmoria began working
on a software program to allow the play of a single classic arcade
machine on his PC. Sparked by a previous interest in playing
arcade classics, he released MAME and gave birth to a new
way to play classic games. The MAME OPEN SOURCE DEVELOPMENT
movement includes over 100 independent programmers
throughout the world working to expand the library of over 3000
supported arcade games.

MAME allows you to enjoy long-lost arcade games, but
the purpose of the program was to provide a working testament of the history
of arcade games. Many of the original arcade game have disappeared,
and have not been resurrected for new game systems. The interest in these
games rests in the millions of people who played these classic
arcade games in the arcades in the 70's and 80's, but who could
not find a source to fulfill their interest in the games. Until now.
The simplicity of Pac-Man™, Space Invaders™, Robotron™
and, Street Fighter™ in their original
form can create more enjoyment than new generation games
for some.
Cheesy music, poor graphics, fun game play; add up to one thing: Nostalgia.
Those of us who enjoy playing arcade classics, enjoy being ourselves and
reliving the games which provided enjoyment in our youth. Something as
small as the music of a classic arcade game (hearing Dig-Dug™ or
Pac-Man™) can instantly take you back in time 10,15 or 20 years
to remember that enchanting time in your life.
If you enjoyed these games in arcades with your X-Arcade
and MAME Software you can return to your youth, a simpler
place and time in the world.
If only for a game or two, relive those simple times today
